Ratcheting Mechanism Design

Job ID: 39634123

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I'm seeking a mechanical designer to develop a special ratcheting mechanism, primarily focused on high torque handling. The mechanism will be used in a rotary tool and should be made of steel.

Specifications:
- it is installed on a drive shaft (7 mm diameter) rotating a wheel (30 mm diameter)
- full rotation in clockwise direction
- when turned counterclockwise: turn 180 degrees then release the rotation (drive shaft will turn and wheel locked)

Key Requirements:
- High torque handling is the top priority
- Steel material
- Deliver CAD design file

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Expertise in mechanical design, specifically with ratcheting mechanisms
- Strong background in high-torque applications
- Experience with steel and its mechanical properties
- Proficiency in CAD software for detailed design
